here is quote from someone who is on tr..
haters...
i have no rear bumper support, so the wind wants to rip my bumper right the hell off when im doing 135. so thats why i have holes, until i get a new rear bumper and paint it at least. they think ur just putting holes in the plastic and not taking out the actual 40lb impact metal bumper

i havnt heard any stories of rear bumpers flying off a car. im sure there are plenty of cars that have gone 135+mph w/o holes in the rear bumper and didnt fall off the car.
